Re:Why silicon valley eagerly looking at India elections on Friday April 18, 2014 @05:03PM (#7611315)
Is it? Who doesnt want to get into profitable domain. 99% of the people want to make money and there is nothing wrong in it. From what I read BPO days are gone, people are moving away from it. You need to look at some more stats before saying its only external investment running such a large economy. Truth could be different, we need to be there to figure that out.

My question still remains unanswered why people are following Indian elections. Is it India following sheep herd mentality or it has become important economy for others to watch

Thanks for the suggestion. I think 1500 price point is too high, it shall come down to around 900-1000 once it is commercially launched.

Just too curious to know how it feels. Have you tried it.

Re:Worklight for Mobile Apps? on Wednesday March 05, 2014 @02:06AM (#7345767)
Is it worth using any such software that would help us develop app with single code? I am assuming it would help us manage code & standardise functionality across apps.

Re:Good Designers, Good Clients on Sunday November 10, 2013 @02:25PM (#6708010)
I totally agree client engagement is a good learning. It teaches you a lot - to be a team player, people manager, understand requirements, good listener and above helps you deliver in different environment.

All these traits are important and many early entrepreneurs think they know everything and what they doing is right. They forget to "listen" , understand exact problem and deliver what is required. This teaches all those things and matures you to be what you want

Re:To Persuade People, Tell Them a Story on Sunday November 10, 2013 @02:18PM (#6707981)
Truth/facts in a engaging or engrossing way is the key.

If you tell a story which is not true i.e if you gas around, you loose credibility. True story gives credibility and BS would put the other person off totally, so be careful.
